SPEEDOR STORM is an external facing high-speed door system designed for frequent use in high traffic situations where exceptional wind resistance is required on large openings up to 8m x 6m and 6m x 8m. The energy-saving potential of this door is also particularly high. This rolling door has a unique guide system offering wind resistance up to class 5, 90 mph, as defined by DIN EN 12424. It is a robust and reliable system.

SPEEDOR MINI is an internal high-speed door system for openings up to 4m or 12m². It is capable of many thousands of operations every week, year after year and is a favourite for manufacturing, automotive, and food sectors for example.

SPEEDOR CONVEYOR is a revolutionary high-speed door perfectly suited for specialist applications such as high-frequency conveyor belt systems, providing security and safety between the public area and baggage system mechanics. Doors are normally fully integrated with the conveyor system, together with all relevant inputs and outputs equipped to deal with any requirement.

Operating at high speed, normally one metre per second, Speedor Conveyor is designed for exceptionally high cycle frequency ranging from 60 cycles per hour in normal use to 180 cycles per hour for high cycle requirement.

Variants with fire and security features are specifically used in airport conveyors allowing automatic interface with conveyors, lifts and other equipment.

SPEEDOR CLEANROOM is designed for specialist manufacturing processes or facilities where clean air is essential. Typically, cleanroom environments require strict air leakage control to ensure air pressure differentials can be maintained. The Speedor Cleanroom door attains a very good rating for the transfer of air particles at 18m3 per hour. Examples of sectors using Speedor Cleanrooms are pharmaceuticals and food processing where high hygiene standards are essential. The Speedor Cleanroom has a non-touch safety light curtain ensuring maximum protection for personnel and, like all Speedor systems, an intelligent control panel with digital display, reliable and clean in-line drive system complete with integral safety brake.

SPEEDOR TWINBLADE is a variant of the Speedor Cleanroom designed for industrial applications where the transfer of air particles is a perceived risk. The unique twin-blade construction reduces the air leakage rate to just 2m3 per hour with up to 30pa pressure differential over the door system ensuring efficient and effective separation from a contamination zone. The design incorporates brush finished stainless steel door frame, bottom rail and covers with additional high-performance electrically and pneumatically operated easy clean seals preventing contamination spread when the door is in a closed position.

This bespoke system is a significant step forward for industrial roll-up door development for potential contamination zones. It has passed third-party assessment over a rigorous testing procedure.

Securing your assets

Faced with increasing threats of international terror and serious crime, Hart Door Systems invested heavily in designing and testing high security rolling shutter systems from SR1 - SR4 on the LPS scale.

The range of shutters, branded as Terror Screen, are all to Loss Prevention Standards as approved by the LPC Fire and Security Board and Expert Group G. Over 20 organisations assisted in the preparation of this standard more commonly referred to as LPS1175.

Terror Screen shutters have a high-security weight and strength combination through the twin skin steel lath (SR3), re-enforced by an aluminium substructure (SR4). This heavy door system is highly resistant to cutting, providing significant resistance to attack. Drives, particularly on larger doors, will be chain driven rather than the simpler direct Safedrive units.

Independent tests confirm the SR4 withstands 20 minutes of direct attack, including 10 minutes with drills, grinders and hand tools. This allows on-site security time to arrive and secure the location, protecting key infrastructure facilities and high-value businesses and their assets.

Qualifying products such as Terror Screen are listed in the LPCB Red Book/Red Book Live which is the key reference for specifiers, regulators, designers and end-users of fire and security products and services. Each product and service listed in the Red Book is robustly checked by independent experts to ensure that it delivers the performance expected. KEY FEATURES

• Tested and approved to LPS 1175 Issue 7

• Complies with BSEN 12453:2005, BSEN 12604:2000, BSEN 12635:2002, BSEN 12978:2003

• Sizes up to 9m wide x 8m high

• Operation by press button or various automatic operators

• Electric/manual locking arrangements

BENEFITS

• Attack prevention

• Security performance

• Asset protection

• Public safety

• Insurance compliance

Protecting your people and business from fire Hart's Firebrand range of fire-resistant

shutters, rated from 30 minutes up to 240 minutes fire resistance, are manufactured to customer dimensions and specification including powder coating in any RAL colour to suit.

Legislation enforced on 1st November 2019 requires fire doors to be tested to BS EN 1634-2 for compliance, substituting the BS 476 part 22 British standard. Doors supplied to the old BS 476 standard are not compliant with the law.

Hart Firebrand shutters are tested, assessed and certified by the LPCB to BS EN 16034 tested to BS EN 1634-2. ISO 9001 certification ensures production and installation are completed to all relevant standards, including compliance to safe use requirements. A BRE controlled labelling procedure ensures product identity, traceability and compliance.

Operation in a fire situation has five clear requirements:-

1. Doors permanently locked and only opened temporarily in a controlled environment do not have a requirement to self-close in the event of a fire

2. All other doors must operate in a fail-safe mode so that when power is removed, the door will close fully

3. Doors with local activation via a fusible link or heat sensor require audio visual warning when the door is closing

4. Doors operated via central fire and smoke control systems require audio visual warning and presence detection of pedestrians. The door will not close if the sensors detect people or objects

5. All doors should be maintained to a professional standard by trained operatives with full records kept

Increasing levels of automation and safety requirements are available such as operation via battery backup in varying levels of performance, from full operation reducing to control of the closing only. Optional ATEX compliance and security rating SR1-SR3 is available.

KEY FEATURES• Activation from fusible link, fire alarm

WASTE CHALLENGES

• Local authority opposition to odour and noise

• Pests including rodents, pigeons, seagulls

• Difficult conditions on site - dust and moisture

• High traffic

• Large vehicles

HART’S PROVEN SOLUTIONS

Hart is supplying doors to a growing number of energy from waste projects across the UK, with many high profile clients in the renewable energy sector such as HZI, Veolia and Viridor.

Typically Hart installed two fast-action Speedors for a haulage company specialising in waste disposal at a Midlands facility. The two Speedor Storms were installed to minimise the escape of dust and smells as well as keeping out birds and rodents. The fast action allows for quick arrival and tipping of waste within a closed harsh environment so reducing the chance of smells leaving the building.

Both Storms were supplied with optional moisture control of electrics. The largest door was 6m high and 8m wide. It is Hart’s reputation for delivering reliable, very large, high-speed automatic doors for the waste industry that leads to contracts such as this.

Three Speedor Storms were installed at an in-vessel composting facility capable of processing 60,000 tonnes of kitchen and green garden waste each year. Hart now has over 60 doors installed across 11 sites for the same client, all supported by Hart’s Machinery Directive compliant planned maintenance service. Hart’s experience on these projects highlights the many challenges for the operator for which Hart has engineered unique solutions.

Manufacturing covers a huge range of areas and as such, there is a requirement for a variety of doors in the industry. Hart’s range of doors can enhance the thermal performance of manufacturing facilities helping to maintain the internal building temperature within precise tolerances critical for manufacturing processes.

The UK Manufacturing industry employs approximately 2.6 million people with £150 billion national economic output, so productivity and energy savings are of major benefit to manufacturers.

MANUFACTURING CHALLENGES

• Access (operational areas)

• Vehicle, forklift, pedestrian access

• Security

• Retaining heat

• Keeping vermin out

• Dust and dirty conditions

HART’S PROVEN SOLUTIONS

An installation at a foundry in the West Midlands involved several Hart Speedors and roller shutters. With the aid of sensors, the doors only opened when needed, helping to keep dust and dirt from the foundry out of the warehouse. The fast action helped control the working temperature within the warehouse while reducing noise from the main foundry. Not only did they look the part with the newly clad walls, but they also created a clean, safe and comfortable environment for all employees and visitors to the company.

Hart successfully designed an innovative solution for a new automotive battery production facility. The 70+ doors needed to give 60 minute fire resistance and be capable of completing up to 400,000 open/close cycles a year. They also needed to meet strict air leakage criteria and be able to withstand sudden air-pressure increases. Furthermore, they had to interface with third-party equipment such as conveyor belt controls and fire alarms. Each required an LCD display control panel that provided a quick and easy diagnosis of what each door was doing at any point in time.

Due to the engineering expertise developed over many years, Hart is able to develop individual products through invention and rigorous testing to deliver innovative solutions to meet client’s unique requirements.

Damage is a risk in a busy warehouse or factory so what is the repair/parts back-up?

When fork truck drivers accidentally drive into your doors, what is the cost to you while parts are being sourced? Because our doors are designed and built in-house, parts are available from stock or can be made to order in our UK factory.

Do your doors come straight off the shelf?

No. We design, manufacture and install doors that are specific to your needs. Not only that, all our products are tried and tested and fully compliant to meet the highest safety and quality standards so you can rest assured that you and your employees can carry out your day to day activities in a safe and secure working environment.

Do you sub-contract installation and repair/maintenance work?

In the UK we never use sub-contractors which means you can

rely on our highly skilled mechanical and electrical engineers to fix faults or replace parts on the first visit. Our engineers are experienced, fully familiar with all our products and understand the challenging environments that they work in.

For international orders, we can send our engineers to advise or install your doors or we offer a training package to enable safe installation.

How long can we expect the doors to continue to operate, day in, day out?

The expected life of our high-speed doors is over 20 years and 500,000 cycles in normal conditions. Having recently replaced a door after 34 years we can attest to the quality of our engineering. Fault rates are low and when repairs are required, first time fixes are high. Due to the longevity of our doors, the total cost of ownership is low.

How much will it cost?

All Hart doors are made to order and custom to fit your requirements therefore, following consultation we will advise a fully inclusive cost to suit your needs.

How long will it take to get my door?

Our lead time is 4 - 6 weeks from approval of drawings. Please advise if a shorter lead time is required and Hart can try to accommodate this. Forinternational orders, lead times may vary.

How long will it take to install the doors?

It all depends on the type of door, how

many doors there are and what challenges you have on site. But typically, it takes around one day per door.

What electrics are required?

Generally, for roller shutters and Speedor Storms you are required to provide a 415 volt 16 amp, 3 phase neutral and earth 5 pin industrial surface mounting socket (red), conforming to EN 60309, within 1 meter of the control panel position. On doors approximately up to 5m x 5m, it may be possible to utilise a 230 volt single phase supply.

For Speedor mini, a 230 volt 16 amp, 2 pin plus earth industrial surface mounting socket (Blue), conforming to EN 60309 (typically MK 9201 BLU), within 1 meter of the motor side of the door at approx. 1.5m from floor level is required. These must be available at the installation stage. This is a general guide, please consult Hart for the correct requirements for your purchase and international orders.

What structure do I need to have in place for fire shutters?

The preparation of the supporting structure of fire shutters must be constructed to a strict set of rules. Brickwork, and blockwork with concrete lintels in the case of 240 minute fire resistant shutters, fully encapsulated insulated and fire-protected steel for 120 minute fire resistant shutters and 60 minute fire boarded timber or metal stud partitioning in the case of 60 minute fire shutters.

WARRANTY Each door comes with a parts and material warranty for one year, subject to conditions. Extensions can be offered for longer periods and include full maintenance support.

Service and maintenance is required by law to the manufacturer’s recommendations and carried out by trained professionals using only bonafide original parts. Hart offer a full service tailored to your requirements.

MAINTENANCE It’s a legal requirement that employers take all reasonable actions to safeguard employees' welfare. Scheduled maintenance of machinery, including automated doors, is part of the Machinery Directive with a minimum annual visit required to comply with Health & Safety Legislation or more frequently on higher usage doors. Any injury sustained resulting from door malfunction, identified as a result of poor or lack of maintenance during a Health & Safety inspection, has the potential for criminal prosecution.

Planned preventative maintenance is a scheduled service visit carried out by a competent and suitable agent to ensure that an item of equipment is operating correctly, avoiding any unscheduled breakdown and downtime. Hart can offer a custom package to suit individual requirements where planned maintenance and site faults are responded to at the same time. This allows larger sites to minimise unplanned spikes in their maintenance budgets.

CASE STUDYA customer had a service and repair spend of £33,000 – with Planned Preventative Maintenance and response offered by a Competitor. Hart Door Systems now visit on a weekly basis and have saved the customer £13,000 in the first year in visible costs (Hart versus Competitor Invoicing), that’s without lost production and having to re-route forklifts etc. Pro-active rather than reactive actions, providing palpable savings.
